"FOR YOUR BUSINESS OR HOME, IT MUST BE SET IN STONE"

A 203K loan is a renovation mortgage. This type of loan gives the home-buyer freedom to purchase and create a home that is their own. This loan is backed by the federal government with competitive rates. A 203K consultant is highly recommended for a Streamline 203K. This keeps all scopes of work in order and creates less stress for the home-buyer.
